I have been making cabbage like this for years. Sometimes I add bacon, sometimes not. It is one of my favorite ways to cook cabbage! I do save my bacon grease, so when you I am in a pinch and out of bacon, I can use that. Thanks for posting HumbleHousewife

I found this on here about a month ago and just joined so I could review it. It's absolutely superb and can be reheated so well. I've been using it as a side in my restaurant, as well as offering a kicked up version, with rings of fresh red chili. So simple, but so good. Thank you.
